Chương 193: Chapter 192: Ambush

It didn't take us too long to retrace our route back to the Toxic Marshes, and toward the base camp. Thanks to Si Nan and Mu Zi Xing, we could easily find the route that we took back and forth because the trail was highlighted vividly by the cyalume sticks. We just needed to follow the path that were marked out by soft, glowing lights, and since we were already somewhat familiar with the terrain and environment by now, we were able to hasten our pace and cut down the required time for travel.

"How do you plan on fighting the Heavenly Venom King, Sha Chen?" Si Nan asked as we jogged across the outskirts of the swamp.

"What makes you think I plan on fighting him?" I responded. "If he's as powerful as you and that police lady say he is, then wouldn't the most prudent course of action to avoid him at all costs? Sneak in, grab a sample of the Black Venom Toxin, and then run away before he realizes that we were there at all. I would rather avoid fighting if possible."
